Indefinite Delivery–Indefinite Quantity Contracting

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, 2014
Indefinite delivery–indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts permit a transportation agency to award multiple job orders to a single contractor or a small group of competing contractors; this method eliminates the need to conduct a full procurement for every small construction or maintenance project.

The Indefinite "It"

JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1968
"It" is probably the most overworked word in the J_ English language. In English, unlike most other languages in common use, the gender of a noun is rarely significant. The overwhelming majority of English nouns are considered neuter, and "it" serves as the appropriate pronoun, with a definite reference.

Indefinite

2022
Abstract Indefinite is the first major ethnographic study of American jails since the advent of racialized mass incarceration. The author was confined in a southern California county jail system during which time he conducted what he calls an organic ethnography of jail life.

Logical Indefinites

Logique et Analyse, 2014
The best extant demarcation of logical constants, due to Tarski, classifies logical constants by invariance properties of their denotations. This classification is developed in a framework which presumes that the denotations of all expressions are definite.

An efficient indefiniteness inference scheme in indefinite deductive databases

IEEE Transactions on Knowledge and Data Engineering, 1994
We introduce an inference scheme, based on the compilation approach, that can answer "true," provable-false," "indefinite," or "assumable-false" to a closed query in an indefinite deductive database under the generalized closed world assumption. The inference scheme proposed in this paper consists of a representation scheme and an evaluation process ...

Indefinite integration with validation

ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, 1989
We present an overview of two approaches to validated one-dimensional indefinite integration. The first approach is to find an inclusion of the integrand, then integrate this inclusion to obtain an inclusion of the indefinite integral. Inclusions for the integrand may be obtained from Taylor polynomials, Tschebyscheff polynomials, or other ...

Aspects of the Indefiniteness Effect

2007
This paper proposes an account for the indefiniteness effect discussed in [1]. We shall argue that the effect arises from (a) the tendency of indefinites in certain interrogative constructions to take wide scope over WH-terms, resulting in 'quantifying into' questions, and (b) the pragmatic impropiety of interrogatives with wide scope taking ...

Indefiniteness of Mathematical Objects

Philosophia Mathematica, 2000
Der von \textit{P. Benacerraf} [``Mathematical truth'', J. Philos. 70, 661-679 (1973)] erhobene Vorwurf gegen die sogenannte platonistische Auffassung der Mathematik, insbesondere die damit verbundene Willkür in der Identifikation mathematischer Objekte, wird in diesem Artikel (festgemacht am ``Problem'', daß man nicht entscheiden kann, ob es sich bei \

Indefinite QR Factorization

BIT Numerical Mathematics, 2006
Let $A$ be a Hermitian positive definite matrix given by its rectangular factor $G$ such that $A = G^{; ; ; \ast}; ; ; G$. It is well known that the Cholesky factorization of $A$ is equivalent to the QR factorization of $G$. In this paper, an analogue of the QR factorization for Hermitian indefinite matrices is constructed.
